y Specification of Letters latent. Application led December 12, 1913. Serial No. 806,156.

Beit'known that I, ARTHUR J Roaman, a

`citizen of the United States, and a resident of the cityA of Cincinnati, in the county of.

Hamilton and Stateof Ohio, have invented certain new' and useful Improvements in AlVrapping-l\lacliiiies, of which the following i is a full, clear, and exact description, reference being-had to the accompanying draw-y ings, 'forming part of this specification.

In machines 'for wrapping with a'piece of paper' or similar material, a cylindrical surface, such vas'a stick of candy, difliculty has been found in a number of directions.V Especially in the wrap ing of candy, there is .thetendency of brea tage, due among ,other .f ,things to the clogging o'f the 'feed of's'upply to the' wrapper and the V`rollingand twisting motion injth'e wrapper proper. It has been found diicult also to'provlde a proper feed of paper and a' wrapping means which will -adapt itself o usual variations in sizeof the sticks to be rapped. y

Myinvcntion has special reference tolstick' candy wrapping machines, and .has as its dillectpbject the .improvement over my former. deviceV described and. claimed in United States Patent No. 1,072,505 to which reference is hereby made, whereby a continuous strip ofpaper 1s fed into the ma-y chine, cut, and advanced 'for wrapping,and whereby the feeding of the candy at several points 'is made most eiicient and secure, as

will be hereinafter specifically pointed out .and claimed.

over my former structure. At the left hand side of the machine, as shown, is mounted `the paper roll 8,' ]ournaled in arms 9, 9 in lthe candy wrap ing'-v bolted to the frame.

The paper used art is usually waited paper, of aI widt 'to wrap' securely an' ordina stick of candy. This Vro l, and the shears" for cut-ting it, the grabbing finger for drawing it int-o the machine and the .plate forradl vanc'ing-a e'utstri'p to the wrapper proper are all located in the Y forward part of theV machine. logetl'ier with somfe auxiliary def vices '11'1 the Wrappenthese parts n ownientioned comprise 'the essential'"diference'of sized cylindricalthe 'present'machine over r'ny frmer 4'one l above indicated. It should vbe 'notedhere that the machine isv intended toltiirlli out completely' wrapped stick of candy peri-evol'ution of the mainV driving shaft. f

' 'In view of the fact that the parts ofthe as shown inFig. 3, .the inain driving shaft c1ple, the description of them will be supplied first. At the left hand side of the machine',

7rapper proper are not broadly newin prin'- Gicarries a gear 10 meshing' with a` pinion 11',

which in turn meshes with twopinions l12, i 12, 'mounted parallel to each other. On...

these 'pinions 12, '12, are the shafts' which carry the rolling cylinders 13, lf3. The shaft 6 imparts rotation inits'oWn direction, .,'e

clockwise, to the cylinders 13, 13. It 1s not vafrequisite to perfect working of .this

chine to have a rubber or leather wrap" r con fortheYV rollers 13, 13, and in the preferred l wise corrugations.V Y l .y Y Y O n the main shaft midway between its terminals and over' the r01`1ers,.13,".13,. are

The eedcf candy't'o the inclined trough v l'10e 18, as, will .be-"developed, .isone sticlr'at a. ,time (see Fig. 2). 'At the end "of the trough th sticks -:tre met `^andheld by'two-fingers 45, 45 which 4extend up 'through the bottom ofthe trough. These pins are mounted on a red 46,'wh1ch extends -clear acrossfthe machine and is slidably "attached to depending arms 47 from rods 48, 49. These-rods are 'ivoted o n top'of'the' `movable -wedgesabove 'referred to -e.ncl' on the other end are pivoted at'the'rar'of the' machine at 50, 5 1. As the wedgesjn're' de'presSed,the rod 46 is 'pusheddown', (allowing a stick of candy to .lie in thetrough 'upa'gainst th ed e of a slightly raised yp ')rtion;52 thereof. l hen the cams have" released the movil-bleA `vi'e'dges, 'sprin s 53, 53, attiichedj to a cross arm 54 on `t le.'

The rod 46raiscs th'e fingers/45 'which forse the stickof candyup and allow it Vtoi roll down the'rnised portion of .the trough, at'the` same time stop ingthe nex. stick. Thus it 'can be seen t a-tvthe sticks are-stepped up one by one to the portion 52, whence they are :rolled onto a piece .of paper on they wrapping rolls.

:'hox' 7', will pull 11 'therods 48-and- 49, the

Rollers 5 5 on' thecams 43 whichv work' the' ejector contact with @rms 5 vdepressed as the rollers 58, 58 are raised and lowered. 10. in thebase of the box, the roller 65 is raised and lowered. j These devices together with one further device which is attached to the parts which work the shears, agitate the 'supply to be wrapped at the delivery end vof the box 7. ,Y f f 'lhetrough 18 begins atthe opening (not shown) at the bottom of the box holder end 62, and laterally extending plates 66 (Fig. l) from the sides of the ti'ougli'allow room 2 0 for but one stick of candy ata time .to run down thel trough. Thisstructure now'described follows a stick of candy from the time'it is lit-into the box 7, which ispreferably slid? to be removable, until it is wrapped. ,'It

l cn

I will be 'understood that when the stiel:-

reaches-theraised portion 52 of Ythe trougxh (Fig. 6), it isithen movedforward by t e extension strips 67 on the main cams 14 and constantly kept in contact with these cams i until ejected. To insure the final true delivery of the stick of Vcandy to the wrapping device, light spring Vplates 68, 68 are set in vthe sides of the trough, extending out over 95 the portion-52 6).

The parts which comprise the balance of the machine are all operated lfrom a driving rod 69 journaled vto the side of the main frame and driven by the crank 70 on ,the

'(0 gearflQ of thel main shaft.V These parts arethe lpaper roll, `the reciprocating finger l which draws the paper into the machine and througha slotted plate, the shears which cut' )the Ypaper leavin it in the plate, which said 'uil plate isadvance to deliver the pa er tothe wrapper by cams from theV main s aft'. Y

, The finger 71 (Figs. 8 and 9) 4is lmounted to reciprocate in guideways v72 across 'the frame.- The finger comprises a sliding plate 73', which carries the spring clamping finger 74l and a bracket 75, carrying pivoted on` it a cum76. The normal spring tension ofthe clamping or grabbing finger 74 keeps the cam turned obliquely and thus kee s saidv finger out of contaet'with the plate 3. As vthe whole is pushed forward on its guides, it l'approaches t e end of the paper strip which 1is led to the end of the guideway as will be described. The paper is so placed as to I slide between the plate and the finger. A cross `bar 77 then strikes the cam 76, raising it and elampin the finger to the .position V.shown in dette lines in VFig.9. Owing to tlie shape of the cam, it will remain raised 25 n.dwill 'push down the linger 7l so-that the ablymounted on its holder 63 lso paper will be seized and held.A The finger is then drawn back drawing the-paper with it, until an arm 78 on' the ,frameV where the strokebegan, throws down the cam and releases the paper. The entire grabbing linger 71 is recipreate'dvby a lever 79 extending from a swinging l'rame'SfJ` at the forward endof the machine, said 'frame having four pivoted corners and mounted 'under the cross ia'r 4 atthat end the ma'ehine on pins 81,

81. An'arm 82 is secured at 83 -to the frame at the'left hand pin, and 'said arm is pro- I vided with a slotted connection tothe driving rod 69. As the rod is reciproeated, the frame is swung, and the end of lever79 will advance and withdraw' vsaid grabbing finger Y The paper roll 8 is journaled on the arms 9, 9, as mentioned above, and the stripis Vdrawn down and around a heavy roller 84, .which slides up and down in a pairof arms '85.,4 85, depending from the `arms 9 Fig. 3).`

The paper is then drawn up and inserted under a roller 86, mounted overthepaper guideway 87 in the frame. A s-"will be shown, the -paper extends toa point between the cutting members of the" shears, across .this frameand the guideways 72 of the grab ber 71'extend (Fig. 5) to this point also. Thus the cui end of the paper will always be ready' to bescized by thef grabber. T e

heavy roller 84 keeps enough. supply of paper vfor the machine unrolled, and the 'roller 86 keeps the st ripv taut for 'efficient use-in the machine.4 f l i A driving md 8S for the shears is located under the' body of the machinev anid'jour-f naled there. 4Aqlink y89 from this rod works a lever 90. The shears are mounted on the machine at their pivot 91, and the arms be? yond the pivot extend-outwardly in oppositionto one another. Levers 92V from these ends ooine together v.and are p'ivoted on a' pin 93 which also lcarries the 'end of the lever90,fto forin a toggle for opening and closing'the shears.V When' they driving rod is drawn vback, the lever 90 pushes forward' the pin 93 and thus brings the'cutting edges 94 94, of the shears together. 'As above mentioned, these cutting 'edges when not operating, lie one over and one under the endY of the gui'deway 72 -for the grabbing Vfinger'. The 'rod 88 has two. annular bosses 95, 95, spaeed'apart for proper timing of the action ofthe shears. A, 4downwardly depending Vand inwardly extending arm 96 a from the driving rod 69 has its lower sur'- faee sliding on thisrod 88, and located be tween the two bosses. At the end of each. half of the stroke of the rod.V then, the rod 8 8 is actuated first to close the shears and then tol open them. A t tlie end .of the first half of the'stroke, the grabber 7l will be just at the point of seizin'g ftl iej paper clit at the previous oper'atiort-Tofl the-,shears The fiinal closing the shears, entirely- Y' li;A thisinstaiit,'a cam 9'( on'the driving shaftA vG vstrikes'up a cam 98,'jsec`ured fast to an oscillating 'rod 99, -in'ounted in the. main.
